Bag om The Hive Invasion
The Last WarshipThe Alexander is the last true warship, a relic from the days of interstellar war. Captain Richard Hammett is a bit of a relic himself, an old war dog who doesn't really belong in a peacetime navy. His final mission is downright embarrassing: he's taking a ship full of cadets on a training run.
When Gates start going offline, Hammett knows in his bones it means trouble - the kind of trouble only a real warship can handle. Defying orders, he takes the Alexander to the last Gate - and puts the ship in the path of an alien invasion. Now a captain at the end of his career will have to take dozens of terrified cadets and forge them into a crew of warriors, because they're all that stands between the Earth and the swarming ships of the Hive.
Back on Earth, the government panics and orders Hammett to pull back. Humanity's far-flung colonies will have to fend for themselves. Hammett makes a different choice. Earth responds by sending a fleet - not to reinforce him, but to arrest him. All Hammett has to do now is save the colonies, keep the invaders from overrunning the Earth, and find a way to avoid a civil war ....
